ugh i'm sorry, this is such a frustrating problem!!

If being called "weird" is the thing you're most worried about, you need to get some bigger problems.

I can't believe people are literally like "the trans woman was already getting harassed a bunch, therefore it was totally fine for people to throw more fuel on the fire at that point."

Because Parker was already getting harassed at that point. What the hell did Ana think was going to happen by saying "actually, here's another reason why I think Parker is evil for this incredibly benign tweet."

I'm not talking about you directly. I'm talking about people like Ana who decided to throw their friends and allies under the bus in order to make extremely stretched takes.

As I said in my original post, Ana simply could have not commented on it, or at least not blamed Parker in doing so.

And there was no way of doing that without throwing Parker under the bus in the process?

it becomes an issue for birthday parties and such, from my experience.

What does her being a sex worker have to do with anything?

This is the problem – people making absolutely absurd jumps in logic to try to justify the harassment.

"Parker mildly joking about Isabelle w/ boobs is the same thing as fascists banning queer games."

Get a grip. Pick your battles. Geez.

Like it just drove more people to harass Parker, and in turn more people to harass Ana, because by that point everyone had taken "sides."

There was no good outcome there.

Right, that's my point. Ana jumping in with her opinion that was half-criticizing Parker and half-defending her didn't help anything. It just further escalated the situation for everyone and made everything worse.

I think Parker herself questioned it multiple times and never got a straight answer. So as of yet, I don't know that there's anything to actually indicate that that was the case.

She could have just... not said anything, though. Or at least not fed more fuel to the fire. It only further contributed to the harassment of Parker.

do we actually know if the person who made the mod was trans? I see that keep getting said but have yet to see any proof of it.

I do, unfortunately, think it's quite funny that the term "dogpile" keeps getting thrown around in the discourse about the cartoon dog boobs incident

I think you have a very different relationship to how you use your headphones than other people do then lol

What happens when you want to use those headphones for a different input, like a laptop?

I'm always saying this, I've watched the space evolve over the past decade and it's been the result of deliberate choices, some of which were not easy or popular at the time.

You can foster diversity and inclusion in your spaces. It works.

I'm tempted to check the app store and try to figure out which specific apps lol

But I'd guess red and yellow are probably associated with both, so it could be any of them

This ain't it, Eric.

Hey, maybe turning Google into a libel machine was a mistake.

Is there a blocklist where I can never seen anything from anyone with a .moe domain again please, thanks

FWIW I checked his videos from the past few months and none of them list Jeremy D as the scriptwriter. But who knows, maybe he removed other mentions of him.

Suspiciously nondescript "Jeremy D"

Not even confident enough to list his last name, apparently.

NYT: A Maduro Loyalist Chosen President Trump picked Nicolás Maduro's vice president as Venezuela's new leader. Will she play along?

he “picked” her? she’s the VP. she’s next in the line of succession whether he likes it or not. what is this framing?

I just want everyone to step back and realize how often it's a trans woman getting bullied off social media.

A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

This is dumb. Why is everything so dumb. Stop being so dumb, all the things!!!!
